I'm a student at the University of Coimbra, where WPVM (Windows PVM) was =
developed and I've been using it, so I think I can help you...

About what you wrote, I think you're trying to setup the parallel =
machine using a unix host as master, as WPVM is somewhat diferent =
(because it is using windows...), to setup a parallel machine using unix =
and windows hosts you *must* use a windows host as master...

Another question is that in the WPVM configuration file, all hosts =
*must* be exist on the network... otherwise wpvm will crash giving a =
"illegal operation" message =20

Be careful to setup the network support and TCP/IP configuration on =
windows!

Bye
